[ Ladon's got a clipboard. He doesn't seem as shy of the video function at the moment. This might be because he's starting to feel more in his element, now that he has a project to work on.

He taps a pen to the clipboard before addressing the network. ]Got a question for the lot of you, yeah? M'just lookin' to be prepared here. No dubiously

[She's just a simple tree frog this time.] Sigh! It's always about alcohol around here! Very well, I may not like drinking much, but I do appreciate the occasional cocktail. Strawberry daquiris in particular!

[ Video ]

[rustigedraak]

Fruity, girly stuff then, yeah?

[ He goes about checking a few things off on his clipboard. ]

[notjelly]

Hmph! You say that like it's a bad thing!

[rustigedraak]

Takes more ingredients, s'all. [ Grin ] You gonna insist on paper umbrellas?

[fuckinghubble]

Bourbon, with the occasional gin and tonic.

What's made you so curious?

[rustigedraak]

[ Checking more off. ] Any particular brand?

Research. Got some ideas, just lookin' at fleshin' 'em out. That, and I ain't mixed drinks in a while, figure I better brush up on the popular stuff.

[fuckinghubble]

Whatever's available. I've never been choosy.

Are you some kind of bartender?

[rustigedraak]

Roger.

Own a jazz club back home. Thinkin' we need somethin' a little less... automated here, yeah?

[selfgovernance]

Well, I'm fond of scotch, but I wouldn't say no to one of those ridiculously awful beers that most sane people hate, either. Why do you ask?

[ Video ]

[rustigedraak]

[ That earns him a smile! ] Good man. You can be damn sure I'll have plenty of good single malt on hand. Beer'll be on tap, but s'a stand-by.

Project I'm tacklin'. Noticed a lack of bars that got pourers with a pulse, yeah?

[selfgovernance]

So you're thinking of opening your own joint, mm? Well, your single malt has my attention, my friend, and my patronage, if you decide to go through with the idea.

[ Video ]

[rustigedraak]

Almost there, just got a few tweaks t'make to the joint. Gotta jazz the place up a bit, make it a bit more like home in a few ways...

Ne, I like hot Chocolate best! I don't get to have it very often.

Video

[rustigedraak]

Hot chocolate, huh? Should be able t'manage that no problem.

[mightyappendix]

Ah, really?!

[rustigedraak]

Yeah, should have all the ingredients on hand. Could even put flavors in it. You ever had peppermint hot cocoa?

[ Ladon lets his wearable read the text out loud to him. Then he sighs. ] Had a sinkin' feelin'... But thanks for lookin'. Wouldn't be able t'forgive myself if he was out there waitin' for me t'find him.

[Anything is better than speaking, for Anon. Even if get the message out slower.]

I am sorry you missed him.
Will he be okay, if he went back to where you are from? Do you know?

Audio

[rustigedraak]

Yeah, me too. Musta been scared while he was here.

If he wound up back in Nieve, yeah. I got people who'll look out for him. Be even better if he winds up back at the cl-- at home with the family.
